Cumin is an aromatic herb with feathery foliage and small pinkish flowers. The seeds are used as a spice, both whole and powdered, and is second only to black pepper as the most popular spice across all continents. Its earthy, nutty, slightly bitter flavor is used extensively in traditional North African, Indian, and Mexican cuisines. Thrives in hot, dry conditions. The leaves and flowers are also edible, and can be used to add unique flavor to salads and pickling brines.
As a companion plant, it attracts pollinators and beneficial insects.
As a medicinal herb, Cumin seed has been used internally to treat bloating, colic, cough, fever, flatulence, headache, indigestion, insomnia, pain, restlessness, stomach upset, and weight issues, and externally to treat skin problems and toothache.
